looking for opinion on lights and cutter sharpener

Hi everyone - there are a couple of things I am looking at possibly buying and wondering what the opinions might be. The one is a strip of led lights made by Ecoluxlighting and it's for use on the sewing machine. I do a lot of sewing at night and the small light bulb on the machine is ok but not great. The other item is a rotary cutter sharpening tool and it's by Trusharp and it's retail price is about $65 and just wondering if anyone has tried it and if it works ok or not. Thanks so much for the good advise; I love getting your opinions as you always have great things to say.

Hi coldquilter, I have the Truesharp rotary blade sharpener. I have been using it for about a month now. I really like using it. I sharpen the blade before it gets really dull that way it stays pretty sharp. I have had no problems with it. I don't know anything about the led lights though. By the way the $65 price for the sharpener is kind of high. I got mine from Nancy's Notions for $54. Google it and see if you can find it cheaper. Good luck.

Have seen the lights online. Finally saw some on a machine at a shop I was visiting. It was very bright, I think she had the 6 lights. They came in 3, 6, 9 lights, size depending on what size harp you have. The only thing I noticed is that the lights only lighted up what was directly under the harp and bit of shadow on the left side of needle. I did not sit down at the machine, so I can not say whether that made a difference or not. But it did put out a lot of light! And the lady who owned the machine was very happy with them.

The lights are not magnetic but some type of sticky adhesive. Thanks for the info on the sharpener. We were thinking about purchasing for our quilt group and when we get together 2 times a month, everyone could use it. I will look around more though before purchasing. Thanks.
